not sure if theres a full spool for a 70, i do know there are 2 types of carriers for them the open one that looks like a standard diff where you can see the spiders and the other is a two pieace clam shell, like the 14 bolt and rockwell. my friend just put a detroit in his 70 for his ram charger, we where going to weld it but he wanted this insteed, jason.

I think that the spider/side gears would be the only thing affected if it went, but they would be replaced by a detroit anyway. 
i think if you were to break the weld, chips of spider gears and side gears would go through the whole rear end ruining all the bearings and the ring and pinion. i guess there is a chance the ring and pinion could survive, but with the way i drive it's not to likely
it's not to likely

ask yourself this: are the gears available for a 14bolt sufficient? They've got most of the 'standard' gearsets available...
( you know you want one )

the gears in a 14 bolt are not low enough. they only go to 5.13 i was running those with 36's. i just picked up some D60 7.17 gears today . i guess i'm ditching the 70 and just running D60's on both ends. much easier than trying to find used stuff or, odd ball spools. the shafts are the same anyway. hopefully these gears and shafts will hold up to 44's . thanks for all the input though!!
